Out of these mammoth caverns stones, a hard limestone, have been quarried in ancient times for the buildings in the city, and for the temples of Solomon, Zerubbabel, and Herod. Huge blocks of stone are still found in these caves bearing the marks of pick and chisel. The general appearance of the whole suggests to the explorer the idea that the Phoenician quarrymen have just suspended their work. The supposition that the polished blocks of stone for Solomon s temple were sent by Hiram I Hiram from Lebanon or Tyre Lebanon Tyre is not supported by any evidence comp. 1 Kings 5 8 . Hiram sent masons and stone squarers to Jerusalem to assist Solomon s workmen in their great undertaking, but did not send stones to Jerusalem, where, indeed, they were not needed, as these royal quarries abundantly testify. 2.

The miracle of the gulls is often credited by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints Latter day Saints Mormon s for saving the Mormon pioneer s first harvest in Utah . According to Mormon folklore , seagull s miraculously saved the 1848 agriculture crops by eating thousands of insect s that were devouring their fields. Traditional story Image Salt Lake City 2.jpg thumb right The Seagull Monument located in front of the Salt Lake Assembly Hall on Temple Square . Image Stone grasshopper Gilgal garden 3.JPG thumb right A stone grasshopper, commemorated at Gilgal Sculpture Garden . Image SeaGull69.jpg thumb right California Gull Larus californicus After Brigham Young led the first band of Latter day Saints into what is now Salt Lake City, Utah , the pioneers had the good fortune of a relatively mild winter. Although late frost s in April and May destroyed some of the crops, the pioneers seemed to be well on their way to self sufficiency. Unfortunately, swarms of insect s appeared in late May. These insects, now called Mormon cricket s because of this incident, are not true Cricket insect crickets , but instead belong to the katydid family. Having ornamental wings, they are unable to fly, but instead travel in huge devouring hordes. Mormon crickets eat all plant material in their path, but they also cannibalize any insects that die on the way, including their own species. They re known to cyclically swarm in some areas of the Mountain West, especially in Utah and Nevada . These insects threatened the livelihood of the LDS pioneers stomping on the pests did not dissuade them from entering farms as others would advance. This is a reproductive strategy similar to mast reproduction in oaks, overwhelming predators with sheer numbers allowing a percentage of the population to survive to reproduce. LDS, prolific journal writers, often cast this disaster in Bible Biblical terms like the Ten plagues Locusts .2810 1 10 20.29 .D7.90.D6.B7.D7.A8.D6.B0.D7.91.D6.B6.D6.BC.D7.9 ... more details
